To The Ultimate Do We Pursue The Ideal

$ 3,250
  • Description
    This is an iteration of Paul Manship's medal that features the artist Barry Faulkner on the obverse, and the inscription of that version is marked "Barry Faulkner Painter MXMXV (1915)"

    This bronze medallion produced and altered for the Rockport Art Association For Distinguished Service, and this particular example was awarded to Harriet Wengenroth (wife of Stow).

    American artist Barry Faulkner (1881-1966) is known for his murals in the National Archives building in Washington, D.C., and in state capitols across the United States. Paul Manship knew Faulkner when they were both students at the American Academy in Rome from 1909 to 1912. The inscription on the reverse, “To the Ultimate Do We Pursue the Ideal,” reflects the classical training that Manship and Faulkner shared.
